Last Shelter Online

Hiro felt tense, nervous, and excited at the same time. He listened attentively to what Noah had just read. For people who were not so lucky in his real life, Hiro felt very lucky in the Last Shelter Online.

The book that he got almost for free was very important because it had a big secret. He was sure he could increase his demon’s body rapidly if he followed what was said in the book.

The book explained the secret of the 7 high priests who had stripped Lucifer of his armor before ending up sacrificing themselves to seal the demon in the Underworld from hundreds of years ago. And what was written in it was complete. It even wrote about the location where they spread Lucifer’s armor in the world.

Even the name of Lucifer’s armor set was clearly stated.

“If that demon manages to escape from where we sealed it, may someone very powerful manage to collect pieces of The Forbidden One’s armor and use them for the safety of mankind.” Noah frowned. He was really interested in reading everything that was written in the book. He looked at Hiro with an envious look. It was useless if he was the one who found the armor, because they mentioned that the armor could only be used by those who had the same bloodline as Lucifer. What’s more, it was specifically for the descendants of Lucifer.

And so far, the only Lucifer bloodline demon Noah knew was Hiro.

“Well, time to find the treasure.” Hiro muttered as he patted Noah’s shoulder without looking at the man. His gaze was distant, as if he had imagined himself in Lucifer’s lost armor.

“Can you translate it for me in written form? Only the important things.” Hiro asked. He couldn’t find other elves he could trust to keep the book a secret apart from Noah. And, of course, Noah seemed reluctant._.

“That’s a lot of work, NightFall. How much will you pay me?”

“You want money? Do you still need LSC? Aren’t you a hard-line pay-to-win player?”

Noah took a deep breath at Hiro’s sarcasm. However, he couldn’t say no. Noah did have a lot of money that Hiro didn’t know where it came from. Hiro never had any information about it. What was clear was that Hiro believed that Noah might be the son of a wealthy businessman or perhaps an illegal underground businessman that would keep him rich.

“Actually, I need your help,” Noah muttered, looking for a way to keep what Hiro asked for as a symbiotic mutualism. He didn’t need Hiro’s LSC, but he needed the man’s power.

Noah took out a piece of brown animal skin that was rolled up and tied using an elastic tree root. He then opened it and showed what was inside to Hiro.

An article.

An ordinary writing and he did not need elven eyes to read it.

“My guess is… it asked me to pair with someone.” Noah mumbled his opinion.

Hiro saw what was written on the skin. There was a very simple yin-yang engraved in black ink. One side was coloured with full black, while the other side was not filled with any colour. However, there was one point on each side that had the opposite colour from each other.

Then, circling the yin-yang, was an inscription. Just two sentences.

[here is the bad in the good]

[here is the good in the bad]

Hiro immediately agreed with what Noah had said, it seemed that a partner was needed to complete the quest. The couples who had conflicting characters, but could understand each other.

“If the elven is the good one, the demon must be the bad one,” Noah added after noticing that Hiro’s pupils dilated from agreeing with his opinion.

“We won’t know until we try,” muttered Hiro, agreeing to help Noah.

Even if he didn’t need Noah’s help, Hiro would still agree to help him for free if the man needed it. With Noah, getting stronger meant his party would also get stronger. And that reason was enough for him to help Noah.

“Let’s go!”

However, Noah refused Hiro’s invitation for now. He asked Hiro to wait for a while because he needed to take a shower and clean himself up. Hiro could only wait for Noah to finish his business while enjoying the coffee Wheelie gave him.

“Ah, boss, you came?” BigShow had just woken up and saw Hiro sipping his coffee. He got up from the floor.

“Good morning,” said Hiro friendly.

“How was your journey using that walkthrough, Boss? Are you getting stronger now?” BigShow sat up and rubbed his teary eyes. It yawned many times.

“Very pleasant. I got to flirt with a succubus I just met, then I went on a tour to a Jurassic park full of living dinosaur bones. And finally, I found it.” Hiro tried to shorten the story. At least, he had said everything he had gone through to get to stage 1.

“Wow, looks like you went through a lot in a day. So, how strong are you now, Boss?”

“Hmmm… it’s not easy to convert it into numbers. How about you try it yourself? Are you interested in having a duel with me this morning?”

BigShow didn’t respond and just smirked while rubbing the back of his bald head.

“Well, in that case, I will skip.”

Noah was back with a fresh look. He even combed his hair well and used make-up to sharpen his eyes.

“I have to go.” Hiro walked over while patting BigShow on the shoulder.

“Don’t you need sleep, boss?” BigShow was feeling a little worried about Hiro’s health. However, from the wide smile on the man’s face, he felt that he was worrying too much.

Hiro walked after Noah had left first. And as it turned out, there was Cara already at the bar, wearing an apron to accompany Wheelie that day.

Cara saw Noah and Hiro coming together, and instantly her lips formed a wide smile.

“Well, look at these two. Isn’t it too early for a date?” she teased them again, feeling excited about bringing her BL’s imagination in her head to life .

Hiro had already expected that. He walked over to Cara and picked up the charred crusty bread that was on the plate the girl was carrying.

“We’re not dating, Cara. But still, you weren’t invited.” Hiro ate the crusty bread after irritating Cara with his words.

Ding!

[You ate poor quality food]

“Damn, who cooked this spoiled food?”
